A CEO of a company hear about your qualifications as a an IS consultant and approached you for consultation. she told you that currently they don't have a real information systems in their organization. The employees use Excel, Word, and other similar programs to support their organization. She told you that she was informed by a friend of hers that it is possible to lower costs , increase sales, increase efficiency, and sometimes even to gain a competitive advantage by appropriate use of real information systems. (e. g., an ERP software package to manage inventory, accounting, purchasing, sales, production, and other organizational units). Following her friend’s explanation, she decided to install an ERP software package in her company, she found a good one for heading this activity who was highly recommended by a colleague of hers. During the process of interviewing this candidate, she was impressed by his skills and personality and was about to offer him the job. Then the candidate told her that in order for him to accept the offer, she has to appoint him as a CIO and let him have a seat at the executive table. The CEO thought and then realized that appointing the IT manager as the cio will cost her a lot the position at the executive level will entiltle him to a higher salary and a lot of other resources like all the other C level executives receive. On the other hand, as she told you, while the other executive deserve the additional resources since their contribution to the organization and tis operation and performance is well defined and appreciated for a long time. (e. g., the HR, finance, and operation VPs), the contribution of the IT is not as tangible. They just provide some reports, and these reports may not justify the cost. As a consultant that is fully aware of the business perception, and of the difficult economic situation, you realize the importance of cost saving. What will you advise the CEO to do? Please explain.
